My wife, Catherine, and I eat food, not too much, mostly plants. For a variety of reasons, our diets exclude mammals altogether - although healthful diets certainly can include lean meats. Whether or not diets that are healthful for the planet can do so is the more debatable consideration. My particular problem with eating mammals is that some of my family members, and best...

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) (Italian: Organizzazione delle Nazioni Unite per l'Alimentazione e l'Agricoltura) is a specialised agency of the United Nations that leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information, and helps developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices, ensuring good nutrition and food security for all. Its Latin motto, fiat panis, translates into English as "let there be bread". As of 8 August 2008[update], FAO has 191 members states along with the European Union, Faroe Islands and Tokelau which are associate members. It is also a member of the United Nations Development Group.

A complete and balanced diet is probably the most sound advice, but some specific types of food are especially good for brain health. Here are a few of the best:
Fish:
*****
The original brain food contains
lots of omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils, especially cold water fish like salmon and cod.
Omega-3s are beneficial in a number of ways, including promoting neuronal growth, improved cholesterol, and fortification of myelin sheaths which facilitate communication between neurons.
Vegetables:
************
This is a great source of antioxidants, which may reduce the risk of developing cognitive impairment by diminishing oxidative stress.
Spinach, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and cauliflower are among the top candidates.
Fruits:
*******
Like vegetables, fruits are rich in antioxidants. However, fruit tastes better. Some of your healthiest options are blueberries, blackberries, cranberries, strawberries, raspberries, plums, avocados, oranges, red grapes, red bell peppers, cherries and kiwis.
Water:
*******
Be sure to get enough to keep your body and brain hydrated. Dehydration can cause a headache now, and can lead to long-term neuronal damage sustained from elevated stress hormones.
Chocolate:
************
Last (and arguably least beneficial) is cocoa beans, which contain the flavanol epicatechin and antioxidants. Dark chocolate is best, and avoid candy bars with lots of added sugars. Also, recent research suggests that chocolate can improve memory.
Just like you exercise your body, your brain also needs a workout to stay healthy and maintain peak performance.
Scientifically designed brain games are a great option because you can have fun and improve the health of your brain at the same time.
Thousands of people have started playing such scientific brain games and have reported increased memory, concentration and attention.
